MP SD50 5029

Missouri Pacific Railroad SD50 5029 at Cotter, Arkansas on July 17, 1986, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Number 5029 was the trailing unit on a coal train destined for the Independence Power Plant in Newark, Arkansas. I'm not sure of all of the details, but this train arrived two days earlier and parked in Cotter. Not wishing to walk a mile to get to the Cotter depot, the crew cut off their train and ran around it, parking the power next to the caboose.
